Trippie Redd has clarified that a video of him throwing shots at an unknown target(s) was aimed directly at longtime enemy 6ix9ine.

Trippie also claimed he received a 10 percent finder’s fee for getting the Brooklyn native a record deal.
Later, Trippie went on Instagram Live to call his former friend a pedophile and explain their beef origins before teasing a diss track aimed at him.
“Your whole career is off touching 13-year-olds,” he claimed. “You fuckin’ pedophile. You is a pussy, n-gga. You a bitch, n-gga. You touch little girls, n-gga … And he only got…
